Their season undermined by poor mound work, the Rockies will interview Mark Wiley for their newly created pitching coordinator position Monday in Arizona.

Wiley will be able to watch the Rockies in the Arizona Fall League before traveling to Denver to finish discussions with management. The Rockies identified Wiley as an ideal fit Aug. 1 when general manager Dan O’Dowd revealed his plans to have someone oversee pitching throughout the organization.

This person would work in coordination with O’Dowd and assistant general manager Bill Geivett, establishing a clear pitching philosophy throughout the minor and major leagues.

Wiley has been working as a scout for the Miami Marlins after being let go as their pitching coach following the 2009 season. He also served as the Cleveland Indians’ pitching coach in the late 1990s. And he had a brief stint in the Rockies’ front office more than a decade ago.

It’s believed Wiley will have heavy influence on the Rockies’ next pitching coach. The Rockies were happy with Bo McLaughlin’s performance after he stepped in for Bob Apodaca, but he could be given another job in the organization.

Bob McClure, who worked as a pitching coach for the Boston Red Sox and Kansas City Royals, is a strong candidate for the Rockies’ big-league job, given his experience coaching at high altitude for several seasons in Triple-A Colorado Springs.
